So what are you saying Lex??? I'm no good for this place!? huh grumble sad


Shutter -- No, you're definitely good for this place -- !! What I'm saying is that number of posts doesn't necessarily equate to finding someone decent. I still think exposure is important, as a general rule, but it's futile if you're not being exposed to the right people.




So darn hard to figure out where those 'right people' are. With over 10,000...I am trying, and I have expanded my comfort zone somewhat...exploring other forums instead of sticking to the games. This has helped...a little...I have blocked more guys this week than the whole time I've been here. laugh laugh laugh (When will they learn...not all woman are up to talking about sexual prefernces with the first email!? :angry: )

Post more pics of yourself, smile and let whoever contacts you, what you want and go from there. You are very pretty and you will find someone when you least expect it SoHappy. That is what usually happens. Never give up hope, never say never.

I had the limit of 18 photos posted once upon a time...and a pretty good size desription of who I am and what I am looking for on my profile...that didn't help...revamped profile after heart got broken a couple times. ohwell

No one is a misfit Patsfan. Maybe as Lex said, we need to keep posting. If all we get out of postings are new friends, we all have gained from JSH.

I am sometimes ashamed of my fellow men.
Wonder who forgot to teach them MANNERS.
If they want that type of relationship, I can tell them where the cheap street walkers are in Omaha.
Have to drive by there, running around town.
Pity them & their clients.

Back on topic.
I think distance & ties to present location, are the biggest problem for many here.
There are some fantastic folks on this site, but fear of change controls much of our lives.
My main goal in life is to pass this house on to my son & his family.
Thus I am limiting my life for the next 6 yrs.
If I wanted a relationship, I wouldn't have a home for it.

MY CHOICE.

INTENTION = RESULTS
This is one of the biggest rules I have learned in life.
Find your intent & watch the results.

Oh but there are 'those types' here too Sage...(not naming names ohwell) I just have a bit more class and choose to keep certain areas of conversation and physical 'exposure' for the right time and place. That's just me! bigsmile flowerforyou

You are not alone Shutterbug. I have had so many men come on so strong, I also blocked them. There will always be men like that all around us, we just have to ignore, be strong, look ahead and go for what we want.

Settling is really not a good way to go, I've found -- there's always a sort of lingering dissatisfaction, a sort of "buyer's remorse" telling you that you could have done better, maybe, with a little more time, a little more effort....

The thing I've noticed about dating sites, in general, is that the closer you can stay to the middle-of-the-road, mainstream mentality, the better your chances are. It's really just math. Be the thing that more people want, and more people will want you.

For someone like me, whose tastes/lifestyle/goals don't fit in with the "norm" here, it's turned out to be pretty much impossible to find a suitable match. There is no "non-mainstream subculture" on dating sites, not that I've ever seen, anyway. I will have to look elsewhere.

I figure the problem has to be me. The only men that contact me are the ones lying about their relationship status and just looking for one-nighters. I didn'tthink I appeared to be that type. Who knows?

I checked your profile. Nothing wrong with us, just some guys like to take their time and then you have the... (Darn frustrating). Mine is finally moving to the next level! flowerforyou

It is possible and they're right, don't settle.

Funny thing is a couple of days ago, I was depressed about being alone. Last night I met up with friend of mine from here and was completely blown away! We had just been friends for months now, but all at once, we just knew that we should be together. He actually thinks I am beautiful, and I believe he sees that in me. I guess only time will tell. Good luck, all!

Joy - well - Thought you were a nice looking gal, so as long as you are easy to talk to - you should do fine.

And Shutter - ya just live too far away from me, gal! darn ya!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with you.

You are beautiful and most importantly it's not what someone thinks of you, it's how you think of yourself.

Good luck flowerforyou
